Tavo89 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) Would it be possible to introduce the R-60M missile?, in missiones where the F-14 and Mig-29 are. For the F-14 it is no problem dodging my two R-3r's and my 4 R-60's. R-60M: Improved production version introduced in 1982. It has the NATO reporting name AA-8 Aphid-B. Uses wider angle seeker with improved ECM capabilities and "Strizh" optical fuze. https://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/Visit/Museum-Exhibits/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/197174/mikoyan-gurevich-mig-29a/ Mig-29A Production started in 1982, and deliveries to Frontal Aviation units started in 1983.

rossmum Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 R-60M is all-aspect, and adding it would mean adding AIM-9P5s back for blue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tavo89 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 It would be fine, but for missions with Mig-29 and F-14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m fairly new to DCS and very new to Cold War but it’s the only server worth playing. I haven’t been around long enough to know or understand some of the problems being raised but hopefully there are enough people who do appreciate your effort. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=475FG= Dawger Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 All aspect missiles would be a deal killer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=475FG= Dawger Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 @AlpenwolfThe absence of dust in the Search and Destroy mission makes a gigantic difference for VR visual quality. I am looking forward to the other desert map missions being dust free as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma89 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I invited three DCS players to come comment on the same fight, they all have different backgrounds and their experience leads them to comment on different things. I find it really interesting to compare and contrast the different thoughts with the backdrop of the same dogfight. This fight is from the Cold War server and it is a Mig-19 vs a F-5. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All-aspect missiles would end all turn fights! Most kills would be head-on, quick and sudden. Strikers and helicopters would have a harder time than it is anyway. 2 Cold War 1947 - 1991 Discord Helicopters Tournaments Combined Arms Tournaments You can help me with keeping up the server via PayPal donations: hokumyounis@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodge easily with the countermeasures, the 2 R-3Rs and the 4 R-60s carried by the Mig-21Bis. I'll have to get better at dogfighting!.

After 20 years, it had become quite dull on flat screen. That first split-S in VR, you get those butterflies in your stomach like in real life when the ground is rushing up and potential death is seconds away.

Couldn't agree more, but I still prefer GOOD quality (graphics) over the 3D experience. One day maybe...

One day maybe... I will say, that the Reverb G2 has a higher resolution than my monitor, so that one day is pretty much now for graphical parity. The visuals are stunning in it and I’ve come across a re/shade preset for VR that sharpens DCS to really amazing levels. 1 "I'm just a dude, playing a dude, disguised as another dude."

MarkMD Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Hi Guy’s, I’ve started to stream as a GCI, and ground commander. I hope to learn and in turn help others with how difficult being a DCS GCI really is while moving tanks and the like. Here is a link to show how a lonely Stinger can make your day, really bad. https://clips.twitch.tv/PhilanthropicWonderfulHumanAMPTropPunch-v7qDTw567MCI3DzU See you in the next fight… Mike-Delta 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
